Lewiston is roughly 325 miles east of Portland, Oregon, and about 95 miles south of Spokane, Washington. Lewiston is at the crossroads of highways 12, 95, and 195, in western Idaho, not far from the corner where Washington, Oregon, and Idaho meet. From Portland take I-84 past Boardman to US-730. Take US-730 into Washington, and turn right onto US-12. Follow US-12 through Walla Walla to Lewiston. Once in Lewiston, US-12 becomes Main Street. Continue east then turn right on 21st Street. The Hells Canyon Grand Hotel is 1/10th of a mile further along, on your left. From Seattle take I-90 to I-82, I-82 to US-12, and US-12 to Rt 124. Follow 124 to where it rejoins US-12, and stay on US-12 until you reach Lewiston. Once in Lewiston, US-12 becomes Main Street. Continue east then turn right on 21st Street. The Hells Canyon Grand Hotel is 1/10th of a mile further along, on your left.
